    Playing Base Game

    You could install the base game again into a different folder. Disk space permitting, you can have as many different installations as you like. The original storyline is in the mod, now called "Tales of a Sea Hawk". If you start a new game, that's the default storyline. It's not the same as...

    B14 troubles

    No, because nobody else has these problems, and you have not told me what files "tweaking" altered so I have no idea where to look. But the tavern wench dialog problem should be easy to diagnose because when dialog fails, it puts a message into either "error.log", "system.log" or both. So, put...

    Personal flags

    Perhaps use the "Serapis" flag if you want something with an American theme? That's the stars and stripes flag in "perflg6" and was used by John Paul Jones in 1779. Anyway, we don't need to consider which personal flags to replace until the last empty one has been used and someone then wants a...

    Personal flags

    The white flag is free. Once that's used, any further personal flags will need to replace existing ones. My suggestions, in no particular order, are:. . The British red and blue ensigns in "perflg3" - if you want to fly a British flag, use the actual British flag for your chosen period; . The...

    Canonically accurate Wicked Wench/designs I've made.

    For one thing, where did you get that file? "WickedWench02" ought to look like this: If you changed the white stripe to dark yellow then you've already figured out how to do what you need. That does seem to be based on an older version of the file, though, because the current version has a...

    Mod Release Build 14 Gamma Version [Last update: 19th September 2024]

    Because I can't delete files. All I can do is create a collection of new or updated files and put them into a .zip file. Learn to use WinMerge. It allows you to see the differences between two files, or even between all the files in two folders. I have to use it myself because my own...

    My Pirates of the Caribbean experience

    In the stock game? For me, as with @Hunter, the game ended with the final video narrated by Keira Knightley after I sank the Black Pearl.

    Canonically accurate Wicked Wench/designs I've made.

    If you're not willing to make a retextured version of the existing "WickedWench" then I don't know who is. ;) You'll need: https://piratesahoy.bowengames.com/Cloud/Tools/Modeling+Texturing/GM%20Viewer.zip: GM Viewer can show you the individual parts of a ship, which you'll find in...

    B14 troubles

    To be more precise, I originally put the update on Bowengames and always do. I have no idea how the September update ended up on ModDB. The link for the update in thread Mod Release - Build 14 Gamma Version [Last update: 19th September 2024] always points to Bowengames. So, after reading your...

    Mod Release Build 14 Gamma Version [Last update: 19th September 2024]

    "InternalSettings.h" is overwritten by the updates. It has to be, because a new setting has been added since the 2022 installer. If the update does not contain "InternalSettings.h" then that setting will be missing and the code which checks it will crash. Presumably you do not want another...

    Canonically accurate Wicked Wench/designs I've made.

    Whereas, according to that "Black Pearl" wiki entry I showed: That is also what happens in the game's "Hoist the Colours" storyline. There's also an entry for the Wench: Wicked Wench The game's storyline, having been made before Dead Men Tell No Tales, follows all the previously established...

    My Pirates of the Caribbean experience

    As I recall, there was a lot more to it than that when I finally got the quest working properly in B14. I can't remember all of it but I think it might have broken later on, either when Blythe attacked a smuggler ship near Douwesen or when you were trying to find him when he'd left you near...

    My Pirates of the Caribbean experience

    Different players probably have different experiences depending on what they liked or disliked. The game certainly had some bugs due to being rushed to meet the deadline of tying in with the original film, even though the game contains almost nothing from the film. Fun fact: the original...

    Canonically accurate Wicked Wench/designs I've made.

    Interesting designs! :cheers If you want to make a game model of the Wicked Wench as described in the book, the easiest way would probably be to make a copy of the existing model and then retexture it. The lateen sail is correct. Since the film franchise is Disney's, the canonical reference...

    Mod Release Build 14 Gamma Version [Last update: 19th September 2024]

    That is correct and it has always been like that as far as I can remember. Once you're in combat, you can't use sailto to go directly to another ship - only when you're far enough away from any enemy that you can also go to worldmap. That SAILTO_DISABLED presumably prevents you from using...

    My Pirates of the Caribbean experience

    The stock game contains almost nothing from the "Pirates of the Caribbean" films apart from a short bit about cursed coins and pirates who turn into skeletons. They're never seen again and the way you defeat the Black Pearl at the end is totally different to the film. Like you, I found that...

    Need Help Updating the Russian Translation

    I tried that save and immediately ran into trouble. The fort fired at me. The reason is often shown in "compile.log", as it was this time - the fort remembered me as British. You must have been somewhere near Saint Martin flying a British flag and forts can see a long way. So when I ran away...

    Need Help Updating the Russian Translation

    Looking at "Desmond Ray Beltrop_dialog.c", if you report that you were imprisoned, it triggers quest case "second_mission_money_not_delivered_to_beltrop". If you don't surrender, it triggers "second_mission_money_delivered_to_beltrop". Quest case "second_mission_money_delivered_to_beltrop"...

    Need Help Updating the Russian Translation

    What exactly happened during mission 2? The door should either have been locked during the mission and unlocked at the end, or not locked at all. It's locked if you're arrested by soldiers, to prevent you from avoiding arrest by going straight back into the store.

    B14 troubles

    The game loads the "standard" storyline, i.e. "Tales of a Sea Hawk", by default. It then unloads this storyline, then loads the storyline you chose - which may mean reloading "Tales of a Sea Hawk" if that's what you chose. But something appears to have gone wrong because it's supposed to load...
